Monday, December 31st, 2007Oh 2007, where have you gone?! As cheesy as it sounds, I felt like 2007 was ‘my year,’ the year that things really came together and started making sense.
The Recap
The year started out with a bang when I did what I thought was a low-key show at a wine bar in Portland and within a week, I’d […]

Long Live Lederhosen!
Monday, December 24th, 2007
Growing up in the 80s, I was surrounded by traditional German culture. My parents visited Germany and Austria in 1983 and returned with a pair or tiny lederhosen complete with red leather straps and heart pockets as a souvenir. Every year, we went to the local Oktoberfest at Mt. Angel and took vacations in Leavenworth, Washington […]

Nubby Twiglet @ Blue Portland: Recap
Wednesday, December 19th, 2007I want to thank blue, a cute little boutique of clothing and accessories at 3753 N. Mississippi Ave. here in Portland for hosting my holiday art opening last Thursday. The store employees, Amber and Jake set up really nice lighting, and they have a knack for putting together amazing window displays. Two Pridlets showed up […]
Erin Fetherston for Target Go International Review
Tuesday, December 18th, 2007Recently, I purchased two items from the Erin Fetherston for Target Go International collection. I was particularly excited about this collection because of its romantic, young fairy tale-ish looks. It by far has the most defined, original style since Luella’s Go International debut.
Erin Fetherston fascinates me because after graduating from college in California, she […]
Roger Dubuis Red Cross Watch
Monday, December 17th, 2007
Flipping through American Vogue back in 2004, I spotted the most amazing watch ever, designed by Geneva-based master watchmaker, Roger Dubuis. I love the strong symbolism of the red cross and this is much nicer than the $12.99 Target watch I’ve been wearing for the last two years, dirty faux-leather band and all! I tracked […]
Nubby On The Move!
Sunday, December 16th, 2007
Hello Lovelies,
I haven’t been been around these parts much due to moving. Wrapping vintage dishes in newspaper before work, going to work, then coming home from work to pack and move has been my existence for the past few days. As soon as I’m done (and make a few more trips to IKEA!), I’ll share the […]
What I Wore: 12.13.07
Friday, December 14th, 2007Last night, I had a little art show at Portland boutique Blue. The work will be up all month. Their merchandise is fresh and unique and I love the shops lining Mississippi St. I’ve had this pinafore for many years, but it hadn’t been worn since Halloween 2006!
Vintage Pinafore, Ebay
Black tunic, LA Made
Leggings, AA
Knit beret, F21
Purse, […]

Nemo Design Holiday Party 2007
Wednesday, December 12th, 2007On Monday night, Nemo Design held its annual holiday party at Holocene in Portland.
When I walked in, people were spinning a large wheel so hard it nearly fell over. Fellow Nemo-er Rodger Bridges demonstrated how it was done. I gave it a swift spin and before it stopped, someone walked over, told me he’d already won […]
What I Wore: 12.10.07
Tuesday, December 11th, 2007
This is what I wore last night to the Nemo Design holiday party at Halocene. Can I just say that this is the best internship ever?! Before arriving, Lee Z and I signed the rental agreement for a cute little 50s-era house in S.E. Portland. It’s a great way to end the year!
I have more […]
Yes, They Were Made By Elves.
Tuesday, December 11th, 2007
The lace-up oxford trend seems to keep on rolling with no end in sight! I’ve been searching for a pair for months and finally came across some basic black ones by Made By Elves (no kidding!).
They make my feet look (even) smaller and have plenty of toe room. The uppers are super soft leather and […]
What I Wore: 12.8.07

Red dress, vintage
Stripey scarf, America Eagle
Super duper long legwarmers, H&M
Knit hat, F21
Heels, Divina
Watch, Target
